The pompous richly dressed ones
And wonder what their founder would have thought
And then at...

Tiresome Errands Chanso Form
Tiresome errands (Chanso or Chanson)
For many of us, errands are so boring;
Many crucial things to do to show status
rather than wasting time doing routine jobs;
Like, taking Selfie in a new dress, so glaring;

The Media
They prate
They condemn
They spew special interest bile
These champions of society are but
One-sided and silly
They claim to have their finger
On the pulse of society
But write from the view-point
Of middle class insensitivity
Riots and mayhem bemuses
Corruption and graft...

Prate On
A poison pen
And a hypocritical conscience
Can so easily be cloaked in
High morality
Prate on
Knock them down
With words
Slay them in the name of
Public opinion
Write on
Right all the supposed wrongs
That provides fodder to pay your bills
With that...

Langland's Piers the Ploughman Much Shrunk

time of deep darkness and all-devouring death,
this time of woe, high wages and much wenching

I Have No Time for You

Don’t interest me anyway”

Eke, Ergo
Eke out, O my living?
On what grounds do ye speak?
Based on our thanksgiving?
O turkey, through creek creak!
Wind atop the atoll low?
Steady, then first blow.
Ogre, ochre. Fast or slow?
Gold, give off thy glow...
Tyrant of the ocean...

When youth's charade is in full swing.

Once there you do not hesitate to drink
Or stop to think what will tomorrow bring.
Youth, flagrantly...

Un-Crowned Kings
Everybody wants to be king
They crown themselves by opining
And can only see everyone else’s sins
Everybody wants to rule
And conquer all with hypocrisy
They prate and condemn
While shielding their transparent sins
So many rulers make for a great...
